Civil Rights Tour 2012 – 16th Street Church Bombing – Day 4 – 2nd submission

June 16th, 2012

Hi all!
Beautiful well-spoken Carolyn McKinstry was our speaker this evening during dinner. She was so full of love and reconciliation even after witnessing all of the horror of the bombing of the 16th Street Church in Birmingham where 4 little girls were killed wearing their Sunday dresses and talking about the fun event they were going to have in the afternoon for the youth. She was such a voice of reason and has such a beautiful spirit even after suffering and experiencing so much pain and terror in her life. I marvel at the lack of bitterness. She travels all over the world to explain the events of that day and how the world can grow from that experience. Wow, I feel blessed to have met someone who is a living example of forgiveness and grace.

Peace.
